Alvear Pedro Ximenez 1927 Solera

Description

”VINIFICATION Grapes on their optimum degree of maturity are spread out on mats to dry in the sun until they become raisins. When pressed they deliver intensely rich must to which grape alcohol is added to prevent fermentation and loss of sweetness. The Solera System for this wine was started in 1927. TASTING NOTES COLOUR A naturally sweet wine of dark dense mahogany colour. NOSE Deep rich nose with reminiscent of prunes and chocolate. PALATE Sumptuous wine of great intensity rich concentrated fruit in the mouth with a full rich succulence seemingly unending finish. FOOD PAIRING The right wine to end a meal in a marvellous way to sip with dessert or topping ice-cream fruit-salads and pastries or with blue cheese. Delicious refreshment with ice. ” – Alvear
